Thank you for the encouragement and motivation to quit, I appreciate the support immensely and sincerely ๐ญ๐๐
For those who asked: I use patches and an inhalator. Today, I signed up for QuitMail and cried to Quitline and made a proper plan to follow.
Again, seriously, thank you. I'm so grateful to be a part of this community, full of all of you beautiful humans ๐๐๐
We're all here rooting for you. ๐
I found the patches helpful. And the Quit app. If I can do it, you can too!
You can do it!!!
You can do it!

If you're ever finding it near impossible: you can buy a cheap vape and very gradually dilute the nicotine solution down until you're weaned off. I'm aware the media is very anti-vape now but the dangers are from particular things (especially in black market vapes). With care taken I got off the cigs and then quit the juice.
Doctors may still prescribe nicotine for the purpose of quitting.
